KARACHI, June 12: The deputy chief of Jamat-i-Islami Prof Ghafoor Ahmed, has said that unprecedented anti-humanity crimes were being committed against innocent Kashmiris.
He said that Kashmir would continue to be a flashpoint till the resolutions of the UN were not implemented in letter and in spirit. He was speaking at a conference here on Sunday evening at the Idara Noor Haq.
He said though people of occupied countries, like Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine and Chechnya, were braving the worst atrocities and cruelties of occupying forces, but the anti-human brutalities faced by Kashmiris during last 15 years were unprecedented in history.
Prof Ghafoor said India till now had murdered hundreds of thousands of innocent Kashmiris. He said thousands of women had been widowed.
He said it was the armed struggle for independence that forced India to come on dialogue table, and indeed it was the only way to ensure the independence of Kashmir. He said Kashmiris were braving a planned genocide, but still they were fighting for their independence.
He said that the armed struggle of Kashmiris had forced the Indian occupiers to retreat, but our own rulers took a U-turn over the Kashmir policy after 9/11, which lifted the spirits of Indian occupiers and today they were claiming that not only the occupied Kashmir, but also Azad Jammu and Kashmir was their “integral part”.
He said India had butchered 0.5 million innocent Kashmiris, raped more than 15,000 Kashmiri women and rendered homeless hundreds of thousands of innocent people. He said the independence struggle of Kashmiris was now in a decisive phase.
He said that the USSR, US, and France were chased out of Afghanistan, Vietnam and Algeria, respectively, only through armed independence struggles, and India too could only be driven out of the occupied Kashmir through an armed independence struggle.
Maulana Javed Kasuri said the sacred blood of martyrs was writing a new history in occupied regions of Kashmir, Palestine, Iraq and Afghanistan. He said if the resistance was present in Palestine, it was due to the sacred blood of martyrs.
Dr Merajul Huda Siddiqui said the sacred mission of martyrs would continue. He paid rich tributes to Shaheed Amir Cheema and other martyrs. He said till now more than 750 youth of Karachi had laid down their lives for the cause of Ummah.—PPI
